The problem is:
every php-fpm child is stand alone process
so eA's shm_size will assign for every php child process.
if your shm_size is 64M
and you have open 200 PHP child
then you need 64M * 200 = 12800M RAM!!!
though it is VIRT,but you will use SWAP soon.

Use xcache instead - i have no such problem.

if you use "top" to watch all the php processes. I think you said the column
is SHR. It means share memory. so, all the processes will share the memory,
not use 64M*200's RAM.
the RES is really physics memory used.

Maybe you should make shm_size lower in this case.
Do you really need 64M for every process ? Do you really need 200 child ?

I think he was right, the php-cgi will continue to consume memory - it is NOT SHR, it is RES.

How to set the memory for every process?
